Coleman, R. M. (2004). Mindfulness-Based, Self-Directed Intervention As An Adjunct Method For Couples Therapy. (Microsoft® Word document 261K)

Couples outcome research indicates that current practices yield marginal effectiveness and high relapse. Mindfulness-based interventions, demonstrating effectiveness with lower relapse, are absent in most couples models. Self-directed, adjunct interventions effectively extend current models addressing treatment gaps while simultaneously attending to individual and couple factors.

Developing mindfulness skills concurrently with the first five weeks of couples therapy via experiential exercises using the Johari Window model is proposed. Self-directed skills training influences broader arrays of outcome variables and foster a change-focused therapeutic context. Protocol exercises, assessment data, and skills integrate with primary couples therapy processes.

Primary target areas are individual differences, active learning, and values and commitment. Expected outcomes are increased experiential openness, self-observation, emotional processing, acceptance, responsibility taking, behavioral flexibility, and valued living.

Occupational Wellness

Investing in employee's emotional health and well-being can have a direct and positive impact on employee physical health, and an equally positive impact on the organization. Did you know that nearly one million employees miss work each day because of workplace stress, costing employers $300 billion ($7,500/worker)?

Research indicates a person's psychological state has a strong bearing on his/her physical health. When emotional well-being is ignored, studies show it can lead to aches, pains, headaches, high blood pressure, obesity, respiratory disease, mental illness, heart disease, cancer, and even death. Ailments such as depression, fatigue, backaches, headaches, and stomach maladies cost employers more than $180 billion annually in lost productivity. Employees who receive mental health counseling cut their use of medical insurance by nearly 1/3, according to one study. read more
